Golden Stingray Migration Featured in

The Gulf of Mexico glitters with gold as 10,000 stingrays move clockwise in their annual migration from the Yucatan Peninsula to the warmer waters of Florida, and half a year later—back home. This migration occurs in late spring and late autumn.

Seasonal cruises promise a spectacle of incredible natural beauty. Yet, some people are not satisfied with merely observing, they need the thrill and venture into swimming with these nice-looking but deadly creatures, even though a single sting may kill them. In fact, the poison is supposed​ to protect them from large marine ​predators like sharks, though generally, stingrays don't attack first, unless they are disturbed.
